If you had used "Ignore" instead of "SilentlyContinue", the number 1 question on the PowerShell FAQ would have been "What's the difference between Ignore and Continue?".

I wonder what else might be on that PowerShell dream-list.

"What's the difference between Ignore and Continue?". That was one of the issues brought up by the team when I had suggested Ignore during the beta program. It was pretty clear to me. Continue means continue execution but report the error whereas ignore means totally ignore the error. That is, continue execution but don't report it to the error stream (although it is still there in $error for your viewing pleasure). Oh well, for interactive shell purposes -ea 0 has saved help saved my wrists. :-)
